where we're going to end up, it's we're going to end up with some kind of short-term extension, no big deal, and then everybody's going to blame everybody else for the fact we didn't get anything done. you talk about the gang of six, there's a gang of 300 million out there, the american people, who are completely fed up with this. they elect representatives to take care of housekeeping chores, and this is a grand housekeeping chore, and they are failing at the process of doing it. >> howard, i'm wondering, does the same thing go for -- it is my sense it does. boehnor is actually not the most disappointed guy in the capitol, he knew he was putting together something that wasn't real and that cbo shooting it down is not some big shock to him, that he was just putting together to claim he was putting something together. >> that's true too. maybe there was a smidgen of sincerity there and knowing him and having covered him, but yeah, they both want to be able to say after we all go off the edge of a cliff that it was the other person's fault, and that's exactly the situation we're in right

he wanted a clean bill, didn't want any big grand compromise on the budget. then he decided to get involved in the game and try to work out a grand compromise, but the problem was he was dealing with a incapacitated partner in john boehner who could never, and probably can never, deliver his own caucus for a vote. >> and that vote, the boehner vote, was supposed to be tomorrow on the boehner bill. they have given up on that having that vote tomorrow because they don't have a boehner bill anymore. howard, it seems to me that, as you say, what each side is doing is trying to say, it's their fault that it came to this and they need say to their own sides -- i mean boehner needs to be able to say to the republicans and the tea party, i never gave up, i was fighting all the way to the end to get us to this. but when we get to august 1st, there is a very simple way out, it's a way that has been used more times than they can count, which is the one-page, one-sentence bill, which simply raises the debt ceiling. boehner has said, repeatedly, we must raise the debt cei

but whether the house republicans would accept that or not, it's a big, big question. it seems to me that's the lead horse. that's the lead solution, a version of the mcconnell plan, with throwing in the spending which i think would be a good idea which leaves $1.5 trillion of spending cuts. the republicans have been sending some signals and in which case -- >> that's exactly right. diane is a chief economist. diane, ben bernanke called it calamatist not to raise the debt ceiling. both have warned that they will downgrade the always u.s. stall lar aaa credit rating. let's tall about consequences from an economist perspective. if the u.s. fails to raise the debt ceiling on august 2nd, what does it mean for our already struggling economic recovery? >> well, it's incredibly bad news. it could be enough to push us into a recession, depending on how far immediately they would have to do 40 to 45% cuts in spending just right off the top of the board. how long that would last? my plan would be that i would stop paying congress for not doing their job and i think the real issu

. >>> the big story for everybody out there -- now what? lots of false debate on capitol hill, a week from the treasury's default deadline. sort of invented in its own right. a tuesday in new york. good news, not at hot as it was. my name is dylan ratigan. pleasure to see you. the president and speaker of the house delivering speeches that have absolutely nothing to do with where the fault or blame now stands. more importantly, underlying structural problems that got us into this mess in the first place, talking about that. listening to all the floor speech, primetime addresses and press conferences you may actually think something is getting done. but if that was the case we'd have already raised the debt ceiling and moved on to restructuring bank, trade taxes in order to create jobs and prosperity for america. that's downright crazy. luke russert starts us off on capitol hill with the latest on the debt ceiling. >> reporter: the latest on the professional wrestling as you like to call it, right, dylan? >> where's the hulkster? right. >> r
